Atwater made a lucky deal when b,
married the Princess Moetia. There
is a romance connected with their
marriage. Consul Atwater was at his
official post six months before he ever
spoke word to the fair princess, and
this though she lived in the next house
to him. Chances and flashes of the
eye were now and then exchanged,
but the consul feared her, for he had
in his mind the sad fate OF one of his
consular predecessors, who, for the
love OF Moetia "a love not recipro-
cated--lost his reason, and afterward
became All inmate OF an asylum in
one OF the eastern states. But late
decreed that the coy consul and the
young princess should meet, and meet
they did. That ended the coyness OF
the gallant bachelor, and he grace
fully surrendered to the lmperious
command of cupid.

Old Artillery Horses.

Artillery horses. after two or three
years OF drilling, respond as readily
to the bugle call as do their riders.
Fred Grant was captain Of the artil-
.lery squadron during his last year at
West Point. At the inspection held
by the official visitors one OF whom
was his father, the artillery was sum
moned to a drill. 1t was announced
that the commands would be given
by bugle call. and verbally repeated
by the officer to his men.
Young Grant, who, having no ear
for music, could not tell the retreat
from the ''charge," got out of the diff.
Guilty by riding the trained horse OF
one Of the sergeants. She carried him
through. When the bugle sounded
forward" the horse advanced, and
Fred shouted the order. When 'shalt"
came from the bugle the horse stopped
and the rider cried 'tHalt!''
During the war the artillery horses
showed not only an ear Tor music, but
an eye for their flag. as this anecdote
proves:
once saw young soldier who be-
tOAAoSu w a. 5OceGeVlJ VI etlplliCI y eli
gagged in patching the holes in his 5gui-
don Ia markers flag with cloth from
the lining OF his uniform.
When asked him why he spent so
much time to mend that old flag, his
answer was, that, as we were so far
from the base OF supplies. he could
not get q new one.
When the battery went into action
with twenty six horses and six guns
he always stuck the pike ofthe guidon
into the ground where the battery
was to form.
If the man who rode the leading
horse was killed or disabled, and the
noise of battle was so great that the
bugle call could not be heard, the
horses would wheel around the FLAG
and execute the mannuvre known as
by left into line, and bring the muzzles
OF the guns on a line with the flag.
Then as soon as the guns were unlim-
bered, he would again place it about
two hundred PAGES to the rear, and the
horses would gallop to the rear with
the caissons and halt again on line
with it.

Friday evening, came the double re-
lief OF the cessation of the contest and
a most refreshing storm of thunder,
lightning, and rain. The temperature
fell from ninety two degrees to SEVENTY

revived by the shower. The timely
moisture saved many lives. .ss

weather was fine, the air was clear
